Marvel: The Imposter Inventor

Chapter 218: Destroy flowers with ruthless hands
Let's turn our attention back to Orange House.

Just as the Si Cup mission failed.

Justin Hammer, who had been chatting and laughing and patiently following Luca's steps to tour the Orange Mansion, suddenly stopped in his tracks.

Then he looked at Luca in front of him with a strange expression.

Seeing Justin Hammer stop, Luca turned around, looking puzzled.

"What's wrong, Miss Justin? Do you have any advice for Orange Industries' plans to enter the biotechnology field?"

As he spoke, Luca casually tapped the doorplate next to him.

Printed there is the logo of the 'Biotechnology Experiment Group'.

However, seeing that Luca was still so hospitable, Justin Hammer's smile gradually faded, and he asked in a calm tone.

"When did you find out?"

Although it was a question, Justin's somewhat indifferent tone made it seem as if he already had the answer.

"What did you find? I don't understand."

Just as Luca was about to continue pretending...

next moment.

Justin Hammer's previously empty side suddenly burst into a cloud of red smoke with a 'bang'.

Immediately afterwards, a red shadow rushed out from the smoke and instantly wrapped around Justin Hammer's shoulder.

But in the blink of an eye.

The red cloak that appeared out of nowhere from the smoke quickly spread around Justin, wrapping him up in strips of red cloth.

Her graceful figure was also outlined by the tight-fitting fabric.

Justin watched as his cloak suddenly billowed and his figure slowly floated into the air.

Luca touched his nose somewhat awkwardly.

"Um, is this a new product from Hammer Industries? It looks pretty good, but it's a bit too erotic; it doesn't seem quite right."

Halfway through his sentence, a corner of the red cloak in front of him suddenly curled into a javelin and shot straight at Luca's face without mercy.

Fortunately, Luca hadn't expected that Justin Hammer's cloak could travel such a long distance, teleporting directly from the Hammer Industries building to her side.

However, upon seeing the opponent put on their cloak, he became wary and secretly activated his wristwatch, switching to the [Tuxedo] combat mode.

The moment the tuxedo sensed the cloak's sudden thrust, Luca's body was already flying backward uncontrollably.

A wisp of chestnut hair was cut off as she narrowly avoided the 'sneak attack'.

Upon seeing this, Justin immediately pressed forward, his entire cloak transforming into countless sharp blades as he launched a series of thrusts.

"Whether you did it or not, seeing me like this, you'd better shut up!"

As they spoke, the cloak's attacks became increasingly fierce.

Since Luca's intention was simply to lower Justin's guard and buy time to create an opportunity for the other side, all those accompanying him were just ordinary office workers.

At this moment, these people were stunned by the sudden change and stood there dumbfounded.

Seeing that he still had the mind to encourage his subordinates to step forward and show their loyalty, Luca quickly spoke up to stop them.

"Everyone, scatter! Leave this to me!"

Upon hearing this, the employees who were still hesitating and stunned immediately cried out and scattered.

“Murder!”

"Security! Security!!"

However, when Justin saw that Luca was still concerned about others even under his offensive, he immediately sneered.

"Ha, you really are kind-hearted!"

What she didn't know was that Luca's body was currently moving entirely due to the stimulation of his clothes, requiring no effort at all. However, Justin, who had already planned to kill them to cover his tracks, naturally wouldn't let anyone else escape. He immediately prepared to eliminate the Orange employees who wanted to flee first, as his professional target was about to disappear.

However, Luca's words made her stop in her tracks once again.

"Well, there are security cameras in my building, killing them won't do you any good."

Upon hearing this, Justin Hammer's expression immediately became somewhat distorted.

But then she thought that as long as she could capture Luca, he could use his authority to prevent the news from leaking out, even if there was surveillance video.

However, just as she figured all this out and was preparing to turn around and attack Luca again...

But then the boy in front of her suddenly clenched his right fist and swung it at lightning speed, attacking the air in front of him.
What is he doing?

Such a thought flashed through my mind, but it was too late.

Luca, who had been waiting for his opponent to make a mistake, seized the opportunity when Justin hesitated and was stunned, and reduced the range of deceleration force field activated by [Mercury Time].

A deep blue, semi-transparent spherical force field instantly enveloped Justin.

Gears, clocks, magic runes.

Various symbolic signs emerged one by one within the area covered by the force field.

Inside the entire spherical force field, time was slowed down countless times.

Justin's reactions, movements, and even the flow of magic within the crimson cloak all became sluggish.

Within this force field, only Luca was still able to move freely.

"Sigh, I was hoping to capture someone alive."

As he spoke, Luca pushed off slightly with his feet and darted forward.

At the same time, a bare handle slid out from the cuff of his left sleeve.

As Luca closed in, he swung his left arm and thrust forward. With a 'whoosh,' a sharp blade of light shot out from the previously bare tip of the hilt.

Just as he presented the hilt of the knife to Justin's face, the only part not covered by the crimson cloak, the energy blade, only a dozen centimeters long, simultaneously pierced into the man's brow.

A slight buzzing sound accompanied the sizzling sound of the light blade piercing flesh and the smell of burning.

Justin Hammer's previously terrified eyes completely lost their light.

next moment.

The surrounding deep blue deceleration field dissipated rapidly.

Justin Hammer's lifeless body also leaned back.

With a thud, he collapsed weakly to the ground.

The cloak and bodysuit that were originally attached to her body also dimmed completely because they no longer had a host. They shrank back and turned back into an ordinary-looking red cloak, which wrapped around the neck of the corpse.

Luca, having shut down the lightsaber dagger and retracted it into his sleeve, looked at Justin's fallen body and shook his head helplessly.

"So, why did you summon the cloak?"

Luca had originally planned to capture Justin alive after he succeeded with the cup.

We might even gain some benefits from them, or extract some intelligence from them.

Unfortunately, once the other party put on the cloak, it was hampered by her unpredictable spatial displacement ability.

Unable to guarantee that the tranquilizer bullets would be effective against this type of magic user, Luca had no choice but to kill him.

Otherwise, whether it's the compression seal of the [Dehydration Gun] or the time slowdown of [Mercury Time], if the opponent teleports away the moment the seal is broken, it could cause all sorts of trouble later.

He removed the disguise of the [Transformation Watch] from his body, revealing the overly conspicuous [Mercury Time] mechanical arm.

Luca stepped forward, picked up the crimson cloak from the ground with his robotic arm, and coldly gave an order to the surveillance camera beside him.

"Hakimi, send a few Haros over to collect the bodies."
